Near Complete Biliopancreatic Segment Necrosis: A Rare and Unknown Entity Observed After Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass-A Case Report.

Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is one of the common bariatric surgery procedures performed worldwide. Necrosis of the biliopancreatic or Roux limbs in the late period after RYGB is a rarely observed condition, the most common causes of which are postoperative adhesion, inflammatory entities, volvulus, intussusception, and internal herniations. The goal of surgical treatment is the removal of the necrotic segment and the reconstruction of biliopancreatic or gastric drainage.

Management of membranous tracheal rupture due to the endotracheal tube cuff during thyroid surgery.

Tracheobronchial ruptures can be extremely dramatic and life threatening and are encountered in approximately 5 out of 100,000 cases after orotracheal intubation. They can occur as a result of intubation, tracheostomy, and bronchoscopy. In this case report, we presented a 56-year-old female patient with a history of thyroid surgery 27 years prior who presented to our clinic with recurrent multinodular goiter.

Predictive Value of Preoperative Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio in Determining the Stage of Gastric Tumor.

BACKGROUND Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an indicator of the inflammatory state, and its increase has been shown to be a negative prognostic factor for many malignancies. The aim of this study was to determine whether there was a relationship between NLR and tumor aggressiveness in gastric cancer patients and to investigate the prognostic significance of NLR. MATERIAL AND METHODS The medical records of 189 patients with gastric cancer between January 2009 and January 2014 were examined for the presence of metastasis, tumor staging, tumor differentiation grade, and preoperative NLR value.
